Hump Day spring specials at Ginger

There are so many new spring styles at Ginger boutique in Bethesda that the store's offering 20% off starting today and continuing through the weekend. Don't miss fab new looks from Yoana Baraschi (my fave), House of Harlow, Tracy Reese, Calypso, White + Warren--and more. Don't forget that Ginger also carries handbags and fabulous shoes. The store is a pretty place to shop with clever, eye-catching windows and lovely, feminine paintings by local artist Maggie O'Neill.

Fashion meets art

When artist Maggie O'Neill was painting outside Ginger boutique last week it looked like a scene from Montmartre. Finished paintings surrounded the artist busy at work while her mother handed out brochures to curious passersby. Usually found at her Kensington decorative painting company, O'Neill Studios, Maggie made an appearance during Bethesda Lane's Front Row events to display the art she says is her "real love." Her brightly colored paintings with names like "Girls Night Out" are on display at Ginger for another month.
